I found the exact sentence in the cited Fortune article by Sharon Goldman, published January 15, 2026. The article quotes Yoshua Bengio verbatim: “Because of the work I’ve been doing at LawZero, especially since we created it, I’m now very confident that it is possible to build AI systems that don’t have hidden goals, hidden agendas,” followed by “he says,” which supports correct attribution to Bengio.
